摘要翻译：
了解用户的环境背景，即用户的室内位置和环境语义的知识，可以促进许多位置感知应用的开发。在本文中，我们提出了一种声学监测技术，该技术利用室内空间的音频记录来推断室内空间的语义知识。我们的技术使用这些空间的脉冲响应以及在它们中产生的环境声音来确定它们的语义标签。当我们处理更多的录音时，我们更新分配的标签中的\emph{freduction}。我们在三所大学大楼不同类型房间中获得的单说话人语音记录数据集上评估了我们的技术。在我们的评估中，真实标签的置信度\emph{}通常超过所有其他标签的置信度，在某些情况下，在少于30个样本的情况下收敛到100%。

英文摘要：
  Having knowledge of the environmental context of the user i.e. the knowledge of the users' indoor location and the semantics of their environment, can facilitate the development of many of location-aware applications. In this paper, we propose an acoustic monitoring technique that infers semantic knowledge about an indoor space \emph{over time,} using audio recordings from it. Our technique uses the impulse response of these spaces as well as the ambient sounds produced in them in order to determine a semantic label for them. As we process more recordings, we update our \emph{confidence} in the assigned label. We evaluate our technique on a dataset of single-speaker human speech recordings obtained in different types of rooms at three university buildings. In our evaluation, the confidence\emph{ }for the true label generally outstripped the confidence for all other labels and in some cases converged to 100\% with less than 30 samples.
